Stock NEW YORK (AP)-Steels were strong in an irregularly advancing stock market early afternoon. The Associated Press average of 60 stocks at noon was up. .5 at 260.2 with industrials up 1.0, rails off .1, and utilities up .4. Gains of fractions to a point or better predominated among key stocks.

The list also had small losers and unchanged prices. Steels won renewed buying favor on reports that steel orders are running 10 to 20 per cent ahead of the month-earlier pace. Aside from strength in Chrysler, motors were mixed. Selective gains among chemicals, utilities, building materials and farm implements helped bolster the average. The trend was mixed among rails, nonferrous metals, drugs, aerospace issues, oils and airlines.

Tobaccos were lower on balance. The market advance was also backgrounded by news that GM will up its capital spending to, about $740 million this year. By JAMES MARLOW Associated Press News Analyst A WASHINGTON but not much action, all around. At homeNothing much sO far in 1963 seems to have gotten off the ground in Washington except the Republicans' attack on the Kennedy administration's handling. of foreign policy, particularly Cuba.

AbroadSpat and chat in the allied family. President Kennedy says it's due in part to the Russians, because they're quieter. He said "we're enjoying the luxury of internal dissension." But the spat, if it gets bad enough, can wreck the family. Spat and chat in the Communist family, too. Russians and Red Chinese call names, express disgust with each other, but Premier Khrushchev drools over the Chinese ambassador.

If the spat gets bad enough, goodby Communist family. Grumbling but not much excitement in Congress when Kennedy sends his record peacetime budget: $98.8 billion. The usual cries: expenses must be cut. Not much fire in the fuss. Kennedy sends Congress his aid to education program, will soon send one on medical care for the aged.

Comparative calm in Congress. Neither program seems to have much chance. No wonder. Kennedy himself was skeptical of their chances before he ever sent them to the Hill. Kennedy sends Congress his taxcutting program to enable consumers to buy more and business to invest more.

This got the most reaction and much, if not most of it, has been sour. To help it, Kennedy supporters hit on the feeble idea of trying to add two more members to the conservative Senate Finance Committee to liberalize it. The result: defeat. This is not fighting, this is sparring. Business chimes in on the opposite side.

Ladd Plumley, president of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, says the plan favors the consumer too Amen, says the National Association of Manufacturers.

IrritatKennedy is having his supporters tell the Republicans to pipe down, They won't. He stays mild. In short, Kennedy isn't showing any more sign of tough fighting -the kind former President Truman used to enjoy--than he did in 1961 or 1962. The Kennedy administration got into tiffs with Canada and France. With Canada-because it didn't put American nuclear warheads on American missiles there.

With France because President Charles de Gaulle snubbed the Kennedy offer of missiles on which he'd have to put his own warheads, of which he doesn't have any. At the same time De Gaulle, whose high-held nose was pointed at the British, too, kept them out of the Common Market. The result: ever since the Allies have been scrambling for a solution which they haven't found. Kennedy is trying to set up what he calls a multinational nuclear force although no one--and at this moment perhaps not Kenn'edy himself--seems to know how this would work because American law requires American control of American nuclear weapons no matter where they are. And, if things weren't boxed and bottled enough, the Americans and Russians are back where they started years ago on banning nuclear tests: in a sparring match.

Heavy damage in two-car accident A two-car accident in the 100 block on North 6th Street, Sunday resulted in heavy damage to both vehicles. No personal injury was reported. Cars were operated by David Lee Nicholeson, 1610 N. 13th and Thomas Frary, 717 N. 12th St.

The Frary car stopped for a red traffic light and was struck in the rear by the other car. $6,042,169 is the amount Nebraska has received in taxes and license fees and in voluntary contributions by AK-SAR-BEN for agricultural, charitable and educational programs since race ing was legalized. But that's not all! Nebraska farmers and ranchers sell a lot of hay and feed to owners of horses that participate in Nebraska race meetings. At AK-SAR-BEN alone the feed costs are re over $100,000 each year. In addition, the breeding of thoroughbreds in Nebraska is of growing importance.

The increasing number of breeding farms is contributing to the agricultural wealth and prestige of the state.
